Add the items you wish to order to your shopping cart. You can see the contents of your shopping cart at any time by clicking on the "Shopping Cart" link on the top right-hand side of every page (first step in ordering process).

From the shopping cart, you will then proceed to the checkout. In the event you already have an e-shop-direct account, you may enter your login information now (e-mail address + password). If you do not have an account, you will create one now.

During the next step, you will choose your delivery and payment methods. Depending on the selected payment method, you will be directed via a secure SSL connection to your payment service provider in order to enter your payment information. As a guest payer on PayPal, you will only be directed to the corresponding page to enter your bank information once you have submitted the order to us.

Specify your billing and delivery address in the payment section.

In the final step of the ordering process, verify that all of the information you entered is correct. If you would like to make changes to any of the information you entered, simply click on the step you would like to go back to in the ordering process chart on the top of each page. If all of the information is correct, click on the "Submit Order" button.

We will send you an order confirmation e-mail as soon as we receive your order.

You have the possibility to view the contents of your shopping cart at any moment during the shopping experience. These contents can be modified at any time. You have changed your mind about an item or would like to increase the quantity of one of the items already in your cart? You can delete or change the quantity of any of the items in the shopping cart. Only after you have submitted the order is it no longer possible to make changes.

In all e-shop-direct.com shops, you have the possibility to pay by credit card (MasterCard or Visa), PayPal, or as a PayPal guest. In certain countries, you may also opt for a convenient payment by invoice. If you decide to pay by credit card, then you must also enter the card's SecureCode. This code has either been provided by your bank or you have defined it yourself. For any questions on this matter, please contact the bank that issued your credit card. PayPal also lets you pay by this method even if you don't have a PayPal account. PayPal offers a variety of payment options specific to each country.

You may indicate a different delivery address (such as your work address) during checkout. For security reasons, this option is not available for payments by invoice. This is to prevent others from ordering goods on your behalf and having them delivered to another address without your knowledge.

In the event we are unable to deliver your order in one shipment, the order will be split into multiple deliveries. You will be informed in such an event. You will not be charged additional fees in this case.

The amount of delivery fees we charge corresponds to the amount charged to us by the corresponding parcel service or forwarding agency. The exact delivery fees are displayed in your shopping cart before you submit your order. You will have to be logged in or have registered so we can identify your delivery address and calculate the exact amount of the shipping fees.You will not be charged additional shipping fees if we are required to perform multiple deliveries. You always pay the least expensive price, as if everything were being shipped together.

The payment is only authorised once the order has been placed. Your credit card or PayPal account is charged once the goods are ready to be shipped. You will receive an invoice by e-mail at this time. If you are paying by invoice, the 14-day payment deadline begins with the date on the invoice.

During checkout, you will have a chance to verify all of the information you provided before the order is sent to us. Something still isn't right? Not a problem. You can, by all means, still change any of the information you provided. Only send us your order when all of your information is correct. You will then automatically receive an order confirmation by e-mail.

Availabilities vary from item to item and are most often displayed on the product detail page. As soon as the goods are ready to be shipped, you will receive an e-mail specifying how you will be delivered, and once the goods are shipped, you will receive another e-mail with the tracking number so you can track your order.
